RATIONALE OF UTILIZATION OF 3D PRINTING TECHNIQUES IN CLINICAL PRACTICE OF RADIATION ONCOLOGY: PAVING THE WAY FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF CLINICAL DIGITAL HEALTH MULTIDISCIPLINARY TEAM

Bilal Mazhar Qureshi

Abstract

Aim of precision radiotherapy in this era remains delivery therapeutic efficacy and minimizing toxicity for which various technical innovations have been pivotal. Regular multidisciplinary interactions between the teams of Radiation Oncology and Digital Health Innovations can lead to refinement of experimental technical ideas, leading to getting solutions for problems related to precision RT. 3D Printing is one of the areas which need to be explored further in the setting of a multidisciplinary board
